	Frank Huntington Stack first came to public attention in the early 1960's as a pioneer of 'underground' comics. Working under the pseudonym of 'Foolbert Sturgeon' his 1962 comic book, The Adventures of Jesus, is considered by some to be the first work in this genre.
	While 'Foolbert Sturgeon' continued to create comics throughout the twentieth century, 'Frank Stack' developed a reputation as a 'serious' painter and printmaker. Known mostly for his landscapes, figure studies and nudes his work has been exhibited nationally since 1970. His art has also been included in exhibitions in France, Italy, Switzerland, Poland, Turkey and South Korea. In 1997 the book, Naked Glory, a Collection of Nudes by Frank Stack, was published.

	A Note on the Monoprint: Monoprinting (also termed 'monotype') is quite literally a singular form of printmaking. As the name implies only one impression can be created and some critics even argue that the medium should be classified as a form of painting. Briefly, the artist paints an image on a flat surface, usually glass. A sheet of paper is then immediately impressed onto this surface. Under the hand of a skilled artist the combination of paint and pressure yields a unique work of art with distinctive textural qualities. Such great masters from the past as Castiglione, Blake and Degas excelled in this medium. Frank Stack's Figure Study is a splendid illustration of the contemporary monoprint.
